I have lovely memories of Dear Aunty Nancy. She taught me at Owhango primary school and Mum used to send me to learn how to bake from Nancy's kitchen.
I was quite enthralled when we made brandy snaps, wrapping them around wooden clothes pegs.
In later years Des and I enjoyed visiting Aunty Nancy at the Trinity Rest Home.
She told us some lovely stories including how she met Leo all those years ago.
RIP Dear Aunty Nancy.
Love to all of the Whanau.

Sending love and prayers to you all at this very sad time. Aunty Nancy was a beautiful soul, and I have so many happy memories of our families growing up together in Owhango, and of the lunches she put on for our family when we visited you in Hawera. She touched our lives, and will stay in our hearts forever.
